Dark Color Theme for Eclipse PDT IDE

Posted by:  /  Tags: , , , , , , , ,  /  Comments: 6

This dark color theme for eclipse PDT. If you are like me and prefer  white letters on a dark background. I find it is easier on the eyes to stare at code for long hours, if the IDE background color is darker. 

This Dark theme supports PHP , Javascript,  HTML, CSS syntax.

Right Click and “Save Target As”  Link Below:

You are a life saver! This is the first PDT theme I see which imports without breaking anything.
I was searching for dark themes a couple of months ago and they all required fixing tons of problems after importing.

I installed a fresh installation of Helios PDT a few hours ago and finding your theme made my day! I was actually thinking of keeping the light colors to avoid breaking stuff again before googling it up and noticing this new result.

Thank you so much! You’ve earned a loyal reader!

Hi, this is a really cool theme, maybe you would like to add it to http://www.eclipsecolorthemes.org/ to make it compatible with a lot more editors out of the box?
